I say no thanks, especially if it doesn't help us with recruiting. These types of games are scheduled years in advance for a reason. If fsu were to agree to fill in for ATM in the southwest classic...I might would feel different.

I do agree we need a harder noncon schedule each year to better prep for Bama, but there again we have them at home and almost beat what will be a similar type of Bama in 2010. We don't want to start up having to go to fsu and then to t town...that would be brutal IMO.

We played A$M plus three chumps for n/c games, lost twice, and still finished #5 in the country. We bea LSU, we probably finish #2. We don't have a strength of schedule problem.

If Long wants a "name" n/c game, he can quit ducking texas.

I know this is your soap box topic so I can understand they myopia but it's still interesting that you don't consider that Texas may be the ones ducking us. YOu do know that it takes two teams to schedule a game?

Nebraska has stAte at home the week before our mutual open date in september. Call me skeptical that long would agree to a sloppy 2nds with Nebraska after they play H&S the week before. It really opens the comparisons & argument for playing them(stAte).

Thank you. I didn't think that it was difficult to figure out that AState is playing these games for the money like all Sun Belt teams do, not because they are so much braver than Arkansas in facing tough competitition.

Some of ya'll have turned into real dumbshits the last week or so.

Short of playing and losing to a total cream-puff or FCS school that week, I'm not sure I care all that much who we play. It would be nice to schedule and beat a higher profile school for the extra exposure, but it isn't critical. That will come with wins and with Knile and/or Tyler kicking ass and getting Heisman hype. But I have to admit that the compare and contrast exercise would be hilarious if we played Nebraska that week, just for shits and giggles.

I'm with Pale, though. Having a losing record to Kansas State is unacceptable. Any chance they make a BCS bowl this year, so we can start squaring that away? chortle.

Might as well scratch Clemson off that list. They're already playing getting the aMm kicked out of them by 2 SEC teams next season, unless they want to get reacquainted with their SEC roots when we expand to 16 teams.
